Can’t bring myself to deal with the idiots that will inevitably crawl out of the woodwork as more ppl express this kind of sentiment - but I’ll just say this: “too many” Korean players is not a Korea problem. That’s an infrastructure problem.https://twitter.com/chromaticrose/status/1037769858711056385?s=21 …

Don’t insult the Korean players who are merely doing their best in the game and trying to make fans happy. Go yell at Blizzard for letting the NA/EU scene deflate before OWL began. I’m sure there are talented NA/EU players out there who deserve a chance - GO WATCH CONTENDERS.

It really is amazing that CS tier 3 events get viewers and contenders doesnt

To clarify a poorly worded statement, I just wish OW fans supported lower tiers like CS/LoL fans did

There's nothing to support when blizzard ruined the natural infrastructure months before they put their own in place, gosu weeklies had 20-30k viewers every week, go4ow had considerable viewership, then blizzard made it close to impossible to acquire tournament licenses and ...

everything plummeted. there was barely any tournament for about 6 months. No tournaments = no viewers. It's not the viewers fault

And now you can barely get a $500 average "salary" by playing contenders, if you win alot of games and make playoffs and/or win. No organisations are interested anymore because theres no viewership in contenders and no support by blizzard

No point blaming fans then huh? I didn't realize blizz blocked third party TOs like that. Not sure how new talent is going to grow in such a system

It took TakeTV over 6 months to get the license to host takeover 2 from what ive heard. Blizzard is calling Ladder->Open Div->Contenders the "path to pro" inside the competitive scene players literally call it path to poverty, lol.
